The Immigrant Civic Leadership Program (ICLP) enhances the capacity of leaders working to strengthen immigrant communities. ICLP participants explore strategies for shaping public policies that affect New York City as a whole and immigrant communities in particular. ICLP also challenges participants to examine their individual approaches to leadership, in order to build and sustain their organizational and personal visions for change.
